內容簡介
本書是一部介紹概率論及其應用的入門教程。其原始版本麵世已經有30餘年,但仍然是本科一二年級的經典概率教程。在第4版中增加瞭兩章講述應用和數學金融。傳承前麵版本詳細、嚴謹的風格,講述瞭有價證券和期貨理論的基本知識。書中用最初等的方法講述瞭概率測度、隨機變量、分布以及期望等基本概念。離散和連續的案例都有所涉及,在講述後者的時候運用瞭微積分知識。配以大量的典型例子重點講述概率推理,集中介紹瞭組閤問題、Poison過程、隨機漫步、遺傳模型和Markov鏈。每章末都附有習題及其解答。目次:集閤;概率;計數;隨機變量;附錄。
讀者對象:數學專業的本科生以及廣大概率論愛好者。

前言/序言
In this edition two new chapters, 9 and 10, on mathematical finance areadded. They are written by Dr. Farid AitSahlia, ancien dlve, who hastaught such a course and worked on the research staff of several industrialand financial institutions.
The new text begins with a meticulous account of the uncommon vocab-ulary and syntax of the financial world; its manifold options and actions,with consequent expectations and variations, in the marketplace. These arethen expounded in clear, precise mathematical terms and treated by themethods of probability developed in the earlier chapters. Numerous gradedand motivated examples and exercises are supplied to illustrate the appli-cability of the fundamental concepts and techniques to concrete financialproblems. For the reader whose main interest is in finance, only a portionof the first eight chapters is a "prerequisite" for the study of the last twochapters. Further specific references may be scanned from the topics listedin the Index, then pursued in more detail.
I have taken this opportunity to fill a gap in Section 8.1 and to expandAppendix 3 to include a useful proposition on martingale stopped at anoptional time. The latter notion plays a basic role in more advanced finan-cial and other disciplines. However, the level of our compendium remainselementary, as befitting the title and scheme of this textbook. We have alsoincluded some up-to-date financial episodes to enliven, for the beginners,the stratified atmosphere of "strictly business". We are indebted to RuthWilliams, who read a draft of the new chapters with valuable suggestionsfor improvement; to Bernard Bru and Marc Barbut for information on thePareto-L~vy laws originally designed for income distributions. It is hopedthat a readable summary of this renowned work may be found in the newAppendix 4.

[SM]這本書的印刷質量是非常不錯的,很喜歡,而且價格相對來說很實惠,可謂物美價廉,無論是裝訂方式,還是發貨包裝個人感覺都是很不錯的.[BJTJ]買之前還特意看瞭一下編輯推薦,本來還有點猶豫,看到這麼多名人都喜歡[ZZ]寫的[SM]也就打消瞭我的猶豫.簡單的看瞭下[NRJJ],我發覺我已經喜歡上它瞭,尤其是書中的一段[SZ],真是讓人愛不釋手,意猶未盡.
